Wolves 1-1 Everton: Verdict Thread

[jd1981]

Not an anti VP point, but the teams immediately above us at kick-off yesterday also changed their managers at the same time who both have better ppg than him. Over a season they'd be even further ahead.

Yep as said we’d probably still be 17th but just in zero danger

I like your optimistic view, and we certainly have some class players, but it's going to take another Cuhna style purchase to make it a reality and I just think the 3 clubs coming up will offer a bit more than those this season did.

Yeah, there is a large dollop of wishful thinking in my post. I like Vitor and really hope he's here next season but like everyone I have no faith in the idiots above him. Serious work needs doing in the summer, could do with listening to Vitor far more than Golf boy

For me JSL isn’t fully fit and will be more threatening for us when he is. There’s a few of them being pushed into service out of necessity rather than through choice.
Ageee with all that’s been said about Andre but I’d I’ll also like to praise Agbadou. We’ve been a far tighter outfit with him in the side and it’s no surprise that we pick up points when he is. Had Beto in his pocket last night and it seemed embarrassingly easy for him.
I can’t believe why nobody has taken a punt on him before we did as he’s a top half Premier League centre half.

Agree about Agbadou - looked quick, strong and composed - my only criticism is his distribution was rather wayward - but, as a defender, filled me full of confidence.

I'm not too worried about Agbadou's passing tbh, he is wasteful sometimes and it cost us yesterday but I like the way he tries to fire the ball into the forward players, it's unorthodox and gives us something other teams don't have from that position.

60% on keeping VP and backing him or 60% on staying up? Presumably the former?

Nah, 60% on staying up, think Vitor will stay another season.

 

[Lupo]

Nah, 60% on staying up, think Vitor will stay another season.

Ah ok. Think I'm probably up to around 80% given we now have a proper manager and how abject the 2 beneath us are

 

[Lycan]

We were up after we beat Bournemouth really. The gap is too big now.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Ipswich are going to need to win more games from here than they have all season to date. It's not very likely.

Ha, I always think worst case scenario, you're probably right.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

We're 8/1 to go down with Bet365. A 60% chance and we'd be something like 11/8.

They've not won one this year in the league

 

[Stan Hullis]

They also have a pretty horrible fixture run

 

[HanDoJin]

Weird season for a lot of teams, not just ourselves. Spurs, Chelsea and both Manchester teams won’t wildly underperform next year as they have this and the gap between 15-19 will probably be the same as it usually is.

You'd think Leicester need to get something from today's game too

 

[Tony Towner]

At the risk on jinxing it, whereas Ipswich look competitive and still have heart they look lost and waiting for it to end. Like Wolves they do still have the other 3 still to play though

No decision about Hwang has ever been made for anything other than Shi's delusions about his off field worth

I’m blackmailing Shi into keeping him actually

 

[Lupo]

I posted an article about Leicester the other week, behind the scenes sounds even more shambolic than we were under O'Neil

Stop trying to make me more confident with your sound reasoning and actual facts

I thought Hwang looked sharp last night. Hopefully he can stay fit until the end of the season because he's definitely got something to contribute.

 

[Lupo]

If Hwang is to contribute then needs to operate centrally and in the box, hopefully rediscovering his shooting boots
